Today is my Birthday

Thursday, August 08, 2013

Today is my birthday and for the first time in my life it doesn't really matter. I feel at peace. I have no NEED to hear someone say happy birthday, I have no NEED to receive birthday cards, I have no NEED to receive gifts. Today for the first time in a long time its just the day I was born 49 yrs ago. I suppose if either of my parents where alive it would still mean something to them like what my daughter's birthday still means to me. But hell I dont even remember being born or who was there. I suppose my Mom was there of course and I suppose my dad was there too. I miss them more than warm apple pie on a fall day. But finally its just another day. What a relief. Its just August 8th and tomorrow is August 9th. Plop, Plop, Fizz, Fizz oh what a relief it is. EXHALING.
